Podcast: Shane Coughlan of Openchain

Shane Coughlan is the founder and manager of the Openchain Project, which “builds trust in open source by making open source license compliance simpler and more consistent.” As any software asset management person can tell you, they get cross-eyed when it comes to open source license compliance. My opinion has always been that this was due to lack of information outside of the immediate sphere of open source developers. The Openchain Project aims to remedy that, and in this podcast we talked about the challenges of doing that. It’s a great listen!
